Sinha Roy and Rajesh Roshan. The passage of Indian Anthropology has undergone its legendary path with the celebrated work of many great scholars and created a remarkable position in the world anthropological arena. Surajit Sinha, a person of rare academic calibre, was one such leading and extraordinary persona in anthropology and a brilliant scholar in the field of cultural anthropology. He glorified anthropology in the context of conceptual framework, emphasizing the fieldwork tradition. His idea on anthropology moved around the life and culture of the people and he tried to reconstruct the tribal traditions and institutional practices from genealogies, songs, myths, performances and other oral sources. This volume is an outcome of a seminar organized by Anthropological Survey of India, Eastern Regional Centre, Kolkata on the occasion of Professor Surajit Sinha Birth Centenary Celebration in 2018. The articles that comprise this volume, which the distinguished scholars have contributed, elaborate on Sinha s ideas and their contemporary relevance. In years to come, Sinha s work will keep on inspiring the anthropology of India, whether it is the task of building up a postcolonial anthropology, or getting a sense of the transformation of tribal society, or the study of the refugees.
